Ashton Kutcher Shaves Beard for 'Two & A Half Men'

Ashton Kutcher shows off his new clean-shaven face during the TCA tour on Wednesday (January 11) at The Langham Huntington in Pasadena, Calif.

The 33-year-old actor – speaking on a panel with co-stars Jon Cryer and Angus T. Jones – revealed he had to get rid of his beard and cut his hair for next week’s episode of Two and a Half Men.

As for whether he’d be returning for another season of the CBS sitcom, Ashton told reporters (via EW), “The deal we structured as a test deal. The show is outperforming the numbers from before I was here.”

“I think people are responding to it,” he added. “For me, having a show that people like and want more of – that’ll dictate my decision. I have a couple features I’m going to do in the summer. Right now, I’m looking at [the summer features] as a hiatus. I’m interested in coming back.”
